Detail

A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives:

- Ubuntu 17.10 - Ubuntu 16.04 LTS - Ubuntu 14.04 LTS

Summary:

Several security issues were fixed in PHP.

Software Description: - php7.1: HTML-embedded scripting language interpreter - php7.0: HTML-embedded scripting language interpreter - php5: HTML-embedded scripting language interpreter

Details:

It was discovered that PHP incorrectly handled certain stream metadata. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to set arbitrary metadata. This issue only affected Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. (CVE-2016-10712)

It was discovered that PHP incorrectly handled the PHAR 404 error page. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks. This issue only affected Ubuntu 16.04 LTS and Ubuntu 17.10. (CVE-2018-5712)

It was discovered that PHP incorrectly handled parsing certain HTTP responses. A remote attacker could use this issue to cause PHP to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2018-7584)
